List the riding skills you want to work on this season!

After years of XC riding I started to get a little bored. Last year, I picked up a dedicated DH rig, and this winter I built up a DJ rig after not riding jumps since I was a teen... I started to think about the riding skills that I have had in the past and not practiced, or riding skills that I have admired others for, and started actually make a list of things I want to re-learn or just plain get better at!

my list includes but is not limited to...

manuals (since I am only ok at wheelies practicing that as well) but pedal wheelies are not as important a skill in my eyes as being able to manual is!

in general street/park riding. (now that I have the rig for it)

jumping in general and with more style, flow, and amplitude!

things like skinnies etc. are a given!

this should be a great year with tons of fun riding and new sets of goals! What is on your list for this season?

Everything else I want to improve on (balance, freeride skills) will get worked naturally as long as I get off my ass and ride my bike.

Ditto. Any event I enter in, I'd like to at least be a mid-pack finisher, if not better. I'd also like to get over my "fear" of night riding so I can put in some laps during the Payson Stampede (or any other 24hour I do). I'd like to be able to hang ride with some of the roadies I train with for more than 10 yards, like maybe 100 yards?!?!

Other than that, just getting out to lose weight and strengthen my heart will be a plus.
